Count me in!
Also, @FAT32 WE LOVE YOU!
@crunchbits - just (jest?) in the nature of banter, why Allentown PA?
It's kind of close to NYC but not.
It's "East Coast" (far away enough from Spokane WA for sure) but not quite close to NYC or DC (and not in between either).
I'm not sure if this has already been debated/discussed before so pardon my ignorance.
Yes, stable diffusion got horny and added a nipple, so I had to make it LET friendly
hey I'm interested in the yearly vps and would like to host websites on it. Would you be able to install some sort of control panel if I purchase the vps? I want to move as my current web hosting provider sold his host and I want to move.
Awesome! Keep it coming guys!
Valid question. We're generally targeting secondary type of markets, and markets that have quality data centers but favorable metrics for our specific density and build-types which historically were focused more on very large per-rack power footprints. For our traditional customers/use-case paying 25-50% less per kW/sqft was such a massive savings that dealing with 3-7ms additional latency to certain hubs was definitely worth it.
Though I would argue that it's absolutely close to NYC or DC. Especially in terms of latency. You're going to be as good as ~4-5ms to NY and DC based facilities. We're right in the middle of them geographically. Entities/use-cases that need the absolute lowest latency to say financial markets in NY definitely aren't going with us and for nearly every other use-case we're looking at sub 25ms across the entire eastern seaboard all the way in to Chicago while keeping the costs reasonable enough to pass on some fun deals.
They're unmanaged, so we wouldn't be installing anything for you directly but yes the VPS is perfectly capable of running a control panel/hosting websites.
Waiting for my yearly to be transferred to Asia...
Odd that you had trouble sending any stuff to India. May I know what the exact issue was?
I mailed quite a few freebies, and it arrived (New Delhi, I think?) and just never progressed past that point. Some that arrived in a different port made it through, though.
Owk. I see. If you were using USPS or any other service that doesn't have physical presence in India, once it's past New Delhi, no updates will be provided on USPS tracking. From that point, you have to use the same tracking number on India post's website to track its further movement from there.
That's interesting. I'm very curious on the redundancy of the links as well. Considering in many ways it is in the middle of nowhere, how robust are the interconnects and are there actually fairly good redundant options?
Do you have a looking glass for PA? It'll be great to run some tests in advance of the anticipated availability in early Feb.
I had Germany, France, Finland in mind. Do you have a looking glass for UK?
i haven't understood how the game works here yet. but budsgunshop would be great, because then i could do some really nice shopping on my upcoming usa holiday. are there any other hunters and (ipsc) sport shooters here? @crunchbits
Yep, our LG is live for Allentown, PA: https://crunchbits.com/network/lg
There is good redundancy via a few methods:
The entirety of Philly area had a big ~45m-1hr+ outage a little while ago when two large upstreams had an issue (or one did, but was affecting the other) with core routers for the region. Our blended circuit setup was not ready at this time, so downstreams using us got to enjoy method #3. Not fantastic, but better than being out for an hour or more.
Additionally, still exploring options with NYIIX, some IX's in Philly area, and a having one of our other upstreams bring us a private circuit to this facility. These are all further out, though.
Can I have nested virtualization (docker or LXC -- and NO other virtualization inside it, cause don't want screw-up host when compiling/testing/installing) on 1.5GB package? also I don't see CPU (fair) usage policy.
I suppose there is ipv4 and ipv6 address change?
Haha, there is no real game. Just a thread full of friendly greetings!
That would be interesting to know. I haven't done any ipsc but most of us local to the WA office do some recreational shooting.
Thanks. I hate this.
Nested virt is enabled
CPU Fair Usage (I did forget to link this time with the Yearly's, good catch!): Yearly-specific fair usage polcy
Yep, there will be IPv4+IPv6 change if you chose to migrate to PA when available.
and maintaining enough margin to hire quality StaffX
the fact that those around the crunchbits office are active sports shooters makes it all the more exciting for me to order a crunchbits service. by the way, is crunchbits bulletproof? (don't expect an answer and don't want to start a discussion)
important question, does @crunchbits also offer services in frankfurt (germany)?
I would like to say ... offering service on any good eu locations
edit: my bad ... dejavu51 already asked
Well, one of the 2 prizes @FAT32 definitely told me I couldn't offer in his thread was a few sets of level iv plates w/carrier.
We do not. Nothing in EU at all for the moment. Someone already leaked the next likely (non-US) location earlier.
just my kind of humour.
I'd take that.
God damn FAT32 why? We could make crunchbits a
bulletproof*hosting?!*as this is USA there probably need to be 3 pages disclaimer that it is not actually bulletproof etc etc@FAT32 WE LOVE YOU!
I see what Lean16 did there.
That is exactly why he is beyond corruptible. I mean if you came to MY backyard (with or without BKT - I can neither confirm nor deny eating out with anyone) and made some promises fool hardy comments over a spicy meal (irrespective of who paid the bill), I too would be un-bribe-able (or rather let's say the (mis)steaks were rather high).
Disclaimer: I have nothing against FAT, VFAT, XFS, ReiserFS, NTFS or @FAT32 - I just prefer EXT4 and ZFS.
